Rajasthan Chinkara Killing | Freezer Sits At Protest Site Against Chinkara Killings. What's Inside

At a protest in Rajasthan's Barmer to protest the killing of two chinkara, a deep freezer catches the eye. Protesters say they have preserved the carcasses of two deer found in a sack for use in an investigation. Chinkara or gazelle is considered sacred in these parts of Rajasthan and the local community has been making efforts to prevent their killings. The carcasses were found late on Friday and since then, members of the Bishnoi community and animal rights activists have been sitting in protest. Police and the forest department have detained 10 suspects and questioned them, but there have been no arrests. This has irked the locals, who have been demanding immediate arrests in the case. The protesters have now given a three-day ultimatum to the authorities to make headway in the case, failing which the protest would be intensified and roads blocked.
